Persimmon Homes East Wales has donated £1,000 to the NSPCC in support of the charity’s work in safeguarding children.
The donation was made as part of the testimonial fundraising efforts of Glamorgan County Cricket Club legend, Chris Cooke.
Glamorgan is marking 2024 as Cooke’s Testimonial Year and he has chosen the NSPCC as one of two charities to benefit from his fundraising.
To date, Cooke has raised over £10,000 for the two charities.
The NSPCC, which is Newsquest's Charity of the Year, offers support to children and families affected by abuse, providing therapeutic services to help young people move forward after traumatic experiences. Through family support programmes and parenting resources, the charity enables families to safeguard their children. It also helps professionals make informed decisions about child welfare and works within communities to prevent abuse from happening.
Victoria Williams, sales director at Persimmon Homes East Wales, said: “We’re pleased to support the NSPCC through Chris Cooke’s testimonial year at Glamorgan.
“The charity’s work in safeguarding children is vital, and we’re proud to contribute to their mission."
